Note: While we do our best to give you accurate and up to date information about your state requirements, we are not infallible. State requirements change frequently. It is your responsibility, and in your best interest, to double check certification and licensure requirements with your state's Department of Education.

Graduates of a WGU Master of Arts in Mathematics Education (MAME) grades 5-12 teacher preparation program will be eligible for grades 7-12 mathematics teacher certification in the U.S. Virgin Islands, which will allow them to teach in any single subject mathetmatics classroom in that grade range. While WGU's mathematics teacher preparation programs cover grades 5-12, grades 7-12 certification will be awarded in the VI because that is how the VI Department of Education defines the grade range of secondary-level certification.

The U.S. Virgin Islands offers certification in grades 7-12 and does not have certification specific to the middle grade level.

To add a new endorsement area to a current U.S. Virgin Islands teaching license, you must meet all certification requirements for the new area with the exception of student teaching. Educators must have 26 semester credits in the new area and the completion of teacher pedagogy/methodology courses. More information can be found at the US Virgin Islands Department of Education website.

To ensure that WGU receives ALL of your exam scores and can verify your eligibility for licensure, you must fax a copy of your official score report to the Assessments Office at 1-801-606-7021 or email a scanned copy to scores@wgu.edu. All required exam scores must be on file with WGU at your time of graduation so that the Certification Officer can recommend you for certification.
